Located at 1200 Highway Avenue, Hathaway Court is a nine-story, high-rise community for elderly and disabled residents. Built in 1972, it includes 159 one-bedroom and studio apartment homes. The community will be managed by the Gene B. Glick Company.

“Hathaway is a great addition to our growing portfolio of quality affordable apartment communities,” said David Barrett, president and CEO of the Glick Housing Foundation. “The Cincinnati metro area is an important market, and Hathaway has an outstanding location on the Ohio River, with scenic views of the Cincinnati skyline. Our goal is to ensure it continues to be an important resource for those in need of housing assistance.”

Residents at 22 apartment communities owned and managed by the Gene B. Glick Company will now enjoy greater access to essential services thanks to $5.1 million in grants from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). HUD announced the grants as part of its Multifamily Housing Service Coordinator Program.

Located in Indiana, Georgia, Kentucky and Virginia, the 22 government-subsidized communities provide homes for elderly and disabled residents.  The grants will enable the hiring of one Service Coordinator for each community and will fund the positions for an initial three-year period, as well as provide for associated expenses.

Service Coordinators are responsible for assuring that elderly and disabled residents, especially those who are frail or at-risk, are linked to the specific supportive services they need to continue living independently in their own apartment homes. Service Coordinators will assess their needs and connect them to resources such as medical screenings, financial counseling, energy assistance, nutrition programs, and transportation.

“This is the second year in a row that Glick properties have been awarded these valuable grants,” said David Barrett, president and CEO of the Gene B. Glick Company. “We have a long history of helping our elderly and disabled residents get the services they need to thrive. These grants will allow us to do that in a much more meaningful and comprehensive way. We’re grateful for HUD’s ongoing commitment to this program.”

About the Gene B. Glick Family Housing Foundation
The Gene B. Glick Family Housing Foundation is a private foundation dedicated to developing, acquiring, and preserving quality affordable housing, a vital public resource. Its portfolio includes Hampton Court Apartments in Indianapolis; Loper Commons Apartments in Shelbyville, Ind.; Wesley Park Apartments in Auburn, Ind.; and Thompson Village Apartments.

The Gene B. Glick Company began construction this week on Phase II of Westhaven Apartments, its 182-unit luxury community located off S.R. 334, just east of I-65 in Zionsville, Ind.

The expansion includes three resident buildings with new 66 total units. New apartments will be a mix of studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom homes. Each resident building will have five attached garages and 10 storage spaces.

Phase II construction will also add a bark park, two free-standing garage structures with a total of 16 separate garages, a self-serve car wash facility, and two “rain gardens.” The rain gardens will collect storm-water runoff and reduce the flow into nearby lakes and streams. Landscaped with native plants, the gardens are designed to filter impurities and improve the quality of rain runoff.

New units will be available for occupancy in November, and the entire project will be complete in January 2012. For more information on Westhaven, visit www.findyourhaven.com or call (866) 440-5748.

Downtown luxury community to be managed by the Gene B. Glick Company

A partnership led by the Gene B. Glick Company and Milhaus Development, LLC has purchased The Maxwell Apartments from Star Financial Bank. No purchase price was disclosed.

Located at 530 East Ohio Street in the emerging Cole Noble District, The Maxwell is a five-story, contemporary art-deco building with 105 luxury apartment units and 11,000 square feet of ground-level commercial space. It features a courtyard garden, dramatic views of the downtown area and an underground parking garage.

Built in 2008, the project was originally designed as condominiums. The Maxwell’s apartment homes include high-end finishes such as granite countertops, hardwood floors and stainless-steel appliances. Floor plans include studios and one- and two-bedroom apartments; rents start at $815 per month.

The Gene B. Glick Company will be the general partner and manager of the property; Milhaus will be responsible for leasing and converting the first floor into office and retail uses. The Maxwell maintains nearly 100 percent residential occupancy. Glick is currently renovating and converting existing office space in the building to five additional apartment units, which will be available for new residents in January.

“Glick has built and managed housing in Indianapolis for a long time, but this is our first property in the downtown area,” said David Barrett, Glick president and CEO. “The Maxwell is one of the city’s premier addresses and a perfect fit for our growing portfolio of luxury communities.”

Glick has been a leader in the apartment market nationally for many years and recently has
increased its acquisition and development efforts. In the last two years, it has purchased Somerset Lakes Apartments in Indianapolis and developed Westhaven, a new luxury apartment community in Zionsville, Ind.

“This is a tremendous asset with great long-term ownership benefits,” said Greg Martin, vice president of development at Milhaus. “It represents the high-end properties we are working toward developing in many cities across the country. We’re very excited about the relationship with the Gene B. Glick Company; Glick is one of the most respected real estate companies in the Midwest and we look forward to future transactions like this with them.”

Westfield location adding more than 100 new units

The Gene B. Glick Company announced today that construction for phase two is underway at Spring Mill Self Storage, located on S.R. 32, just west of Spring Mill Road in Westfield, Ind. The 63,000-square-foot property will gain 103 new units, 65 of which will be climate controlled.

The first phase of construction was completed in 2009 and encompassed 419 units (with 85 climate-controlled spaces), plus 43 surface parking spaces for RVs, cars, and boats. When current construction is complete in January 2011, the facility will include 522 units, ranging from 5’ x 5’ closet-size spaces to 15’ x 30’ units. Spring Mill Self Storage offers online reservations at www.springmillselfstorage.com, 24-hour key pad access, temperature and humidity controlled units, a 24-hour service kiosk, and the latest security features.

The self storage facility is a first for the Gene B. Glick Company, traditionally a builder and manager of apartment communities. “Self storage is complementary to what we already do so well in the apartment industry,” said David Barrett, president and CEO of Glick. “The Spring Mill property will be the foundation for a growing self-storage portfolio.”

Residents at seven apartment communities owned and managed by the Gene B. Glick Company will now enjoy greater access to essential services thanks to $1.6 million in grants from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

Located in Indiana, Kentucky and Michigan, the seven government-subsidized communities provide homes for elderly and disabled residents. The grants will enable the hiring of one Service Coordinator for each community and will fund the positions for an initial three-year period, as well as provide for associated expenses. The company expects to hire these new employees within 90 days.

Service Coordinators will help residents live independently for as long as possible by assessing their needs and connecting them to resources such as medical screenings, financial counseling, energy assistance, nutrition programs, and transportation.

“Residents in these communities are often frail and at-risk,” said David Barrett, president and CEO of the Gene B. Glick Company. “Our employees already do a wonderful job in directing needed services to our residents, but these federal grants will help us do that in a much more comprehensive way.”

HUD announced the Glick grants as part of a $32.7 million nationwide program. “We are continually looking for ways to enhance our communities and improve the lives of our residents,” said Barrett. “We appreciate HUD’s ongoing commitment to improving the quality of affordable housing in the Midwest and throughout the U.S.”

Glick is one of only two management companies to be awarded a Service Coordinator grant in Indiana and in Kentucky. The following Glick communities received a grant:
